Re-Creation of Lost Gas Layer on Superhydrophobic Surfaces with Micro/Nanostructures, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mosavi, Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
Due to their unique characteristics, such as drag reduction, anti-fouling, and enhancing condensation, hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted a lot of attention in the past decades. Since approximately 4% of the fossil fuel usage and 14-19% of the air pollution (including greenhouse gases, sulfur, and so forth) are attributed to naval activities, and the dominant form of drag on vessels is friction, drag reduction will not only reduce the cost and usage of fossil fuels, but it will also have numerous environmental benefits
